<para>The styling for margin notes.
By default, margin notes are not implemented for any
element. A stylesheet customization is needed to make
use of this attribute-set.</para>

<para>You can use a template named <quote>floater</quote>
to create the customization.
That template can create side floats by specifying the
content and characteristics as template parameters.
</para>

<para>For example:</para>
<programlisting><![CDATA[<xsl:template match="para[@role='marginnote']">
  <xsl:call-template name="floater">
    <xsl:with-param name="position">
      <xsl:value-of select="$margin.note.float.type"/>
    </xsl:with-param>
    <xsl:with-param name="width">
      <xsl:value-of select="$margin.note.width"/>
    </xsl:with-param>
    <xsl:with-param name="content">
      <xsl:apply-imports/>
    </xsl:with-param>
  </xsl:call-template>
</xsl:template>]]></programlisting>
